Yet another troll horn tutorialby ~IvynaJSpyder

Resources & Stock Images / Tutorials / Artisan Crafts / Other

Some people asked how I made mine, so. Here this... thing is!

I did it this way because I hate model magic with a passion.

And I'm clumsy so I wanted something that could hold up to being banged into walls repeatedly. (They can! Not even a dent on em.)

This is an awesome tutorial! Thanks for all of the advice. I have one question, though.

I have taken various steps from various tutorials, and one of the tips that I took away from this one is to use rigid foam insulation instead of Styrofoam. You said that this is typically available in scraps at hardware stores. However, when I went to both Home Depot and Aco Hardware, the employees told me that scraps being present is an infrequent occurrence.

Where do you generally go to get your scraps? Is there a specific store that has them more often, or should I just call these stores every few days to see if they have any in?

~IvynaJSpyder Mar 3, 2013

Well, personally I've only heard of people getting scraps... I've always just bought full sheets myself since I use it so frequently. :T They used to sell smaller sheets but these days I can only find the 8x4 sheets.

Would gesso work instead of Smooth-Cast? No one in my town sells it.

~IvynaJSpyder Feb 10, 2013

Oh you have to buy smooth-on online usually... Gesso isn't going to be as durable and it'll take a LOT more coats, but you can try? Or something like Mod Podge maybe.

~Icefire23 Feb 21, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

Thanks. Gonna buy it online anyway. Just wanted to check.

Hello! Great tutorial.

I was wondering what kind of inserts you used. ouo

~IvynaJSpyder Oct 22, 2012

Hm, I don't recall like the specific brand or anything, just that they are threaded metal inserts...

Oh, thanks anyways! c:

slyly and shyly asks if you do horn commissions at all, ever, even a little bit, maybe?
